    Used to be you could back door it and find out the results about this time every year. But CPW changed the process a couple of years ago.

    I agree. I think most decisions are already made, and this is just mandated kabuki theater.

    Seekins Element 6.5 PRC or 7 PRC??

    My thoughts are that the 6.5 PRC is a better 270 Winchester. The 7 PRC is a true 7 mag and will recoil like one. Especially in a light rifle.

    Suppressor wait times

    I decided to dip my toes into the NFA waters last spring. Bought a B&T APC 9 Pro. At the same time, I purchased a suppressor. I have a squeaky clean background. It took ten days for SBR approval, and 268 days for suppressor permission. Now that I have both I cannot fathom why either requires a...

    Bighorn TL3 sa with Proof prefit 6.5 prc loads?

    I have two Coopers, one in 6.5 Creedmoor and the other in 6.5 PRC. Cooper used 124 Hammer Hunters for each gun for their test target. For the PRC in my rifle it was 56.0 grains of Ramshot Magnum. I increased that to 61.0 grains for 3100 fps over a Labradar. .2 three shot groups. The PRC shot...

    CO OTC

    I took a cow there on a three day (guided on private) hunt in 2021. It was a late December hunt and saw elk every day in the double digits.

    Anyone Lose a Rangefinder In Colorado?

    I actually did. In the Greenhorns. Leica 1600 I think it was. But it was five years ago, and I replaced it with the 2400.

    One leg shorter than the other

    As you age the difference between the two legs will increase. I went from inserts, to lifts. I had to go to a place that would build up the sole of the boots, after they measured my legs. I had to update that at least once a year as I aged. I was at a half inch lift on my right leg when I had my...

    Spinal Fusion

    Your likely a bit younger than me, but I had a spinal fusion S1-L1 in 2015. Took a year to recover. It was not a good time.

    Bosque Del Oso GMU 851 Colorado

    CPW let me know that I was next in line on a turned in tag for Mule deer. I purchased the tag. I have never hunted the GMU, are there any decent Muleys on this SWA?

    AIWB Comfort w/ Glock 19 or PDP Compact

    Love the T-rex with the sidecar. But the most comfortable AIWB holster I've ever used is the Phlister Enigma. Looks hokey and cheap but its neither. Doesn't need a belt, you can wear it with gym shorts. I carry it with a G19, RMR, and Surefire 300A.

    Why is .338 wm ammo impossible to find?

    I went through this two years ago. My rifle simply loves Vor Tx 225 grainers. I don't believe I could handload it's equal. When Remington went under for the final time and got split up, I realized much to my horror, Vor Tx disappeared. As it was under the Remington umbrella. I spent three days...

    Hammer Hunter 124gr - Short Barrel Creedmoor

    In my Cooper Raptor 40 grains of Varget gave me pressure signs. 38 grains with the 124 HH's gave me a three round group of .18

    CO Moose Draw

    I drew a late cow tag last year in 41. Went guided. About 75 miles west of Gunnison. There was zero water. Anywhere. Bogs were hard mud. Reservoirs scattered across the area were just about bone dry. Any beaver were either dead or had moved on. I've heard good things about your GMU except that...

    Hammer Loading

    Have a Cooper Raptor in 6.5 Creed. This rifle came with Hammer bullets used for the test target. It just loves the 124 HH with 38 grains of Varget. On a bad day it shoots in the .6's and the best I've done is .184. COAL per Cooper of 2.820. I am actually considering this ten+ pound pig for...
